Baer will not keep well if any of the buttermilk remains. —It is estimated that 9000 acres bave heen planted to cantalonp+ this apringy the Imperial Colorado valley. crease in the acreage of this melon is said to be from 300 to 400 per cent. ~The word ‘‘develop’’ is often misused for the word ‘“‘fatten.’”’ This is a mistake. In order to develop a pig he must have suitable food to keep up a good growth of bone and muecle, and regular exercise to give him strength and vigor. —A lew drops of oil of lavender put on a bandkerchief and the same rubbed over one's face, neck and bands are said to ward off mosquitoes. If this preventive is as distasteful to the mosquitoes as it is to most people it ought to be a very effective repellent. for —A Massachusetts milkman was reocent- ly fined $15 for baving in his possession milk below the standard, although it was shown thas the milk was exactly as it came from the cow. This is one of the cases whioh illustrate the absurdity of thc milk standard based on percentage of butter fat. —White specks iu batter are sometimes simply fine particles of milk ourd, resols- ing from lack of care in skimming. Some- times they are #mall specks of dried cream, the result of dry cream having been sorap- ed from the sides of the pan, and being too dry to thoroughly soften and mix with the rest. —To prevent the taste of tarnips in but- ter from cows fed on them, a Western creamery practices the following method : Pat the oream in a vessel and place in hot water at 200 degrees. When the cream reaches the temperature of 145 to 150 de- gress, set the cream dish in cold water to cool it. —An English authority on batter-making claims that adding one pound of salt to every gallon of cream immediately after it is taken off the milk aide in ripening the oream, and gives from 15 to 20 per cent. more hatter than cream that has no salt in it. The buttermilk is, of course, useless, as it cannot he fed to stock when it con- tains so moch salt, bus ite loss ie more than made up by the large quantity and better quality of butter, it is claimed. —Aungust is the time to look for horers. Dig the eoil away around the stems of fruit trees to the depth of three inches, scrape the bark with a knife, and if any sawdust or exuding gam ie found it is time to ges to work. Dig out the borer and wash the uncovered parte with a mixture of soft cow dong, lime, wood ashes and a little crude oarholic acid. Then return the soil. The quince, dwarf pear and peach trees are particularly affested by this pess. —To secure good late pasture the follow- ing plan is recommended : Sow the fallen land to rape. This will be ready to pasture within six weeks or two months, and the amount of forage secured from a piece of land thae treated wonld be a revelation to many farmers. The land is plowed and sown to wheat about the first of October, and in a normal season by the following February a luxuriant pastare will he farnished for the ewes and lambs, or for fastening sheep. —[ bave found in my experience on the farm that it in necessary to use consider- able care in the storing of potatoes in the cellar if they are to be made to keep well and not sprout or rot. The storing in open ies satiite ve lallowed by my father when was a hoy, e potatoes got a deal of sunlight and warmth, The you was that yuvers) 3 times throughout the winter we hoye had johs sprouting the potatoes. The work is all right, bas the potatoes are reduced in condition each time they are permitted to sprout. The mois- ture that goes out in the sprouts leaves the tuhers soft and wrinkled. In that condition they are of little value for eating and of less value for seed. There are two things that peed to be looked after in she storing of . One is to keep the hoxed or barreled tight, 80 as not to permis the - to pass through the storage places and draw mois- ture from the tubera. The other is to keep the cellar cool. Under modern conditions this is more difficult than it was under the old conditions; for the reason that many of our farmhouses are now heated by means of farpaces which greatly increase the warmth in the cellar. In a case of this kind it is absolutely necessary to havea second cellar beyond she first or bave the first cellar divided into two parts bya double wall that will not permit the heat from the furnace to warm the air in the other portion. The windows from the cel. lar to the ofen air must be fixed to open, 80 thas now and then throughout the win- ter the storage cellar may be filled with cool air. Potatoes most be kept from sprouting and must also be kept from los- ing moistare. They should be as sound aud bard late in the winter as when first put in the cellar. If the sitting hen can have a little pen outside the nest, where she can get off, stretch, eat and drink when she desires, it will not be necessary to fasten her on the neat and the labor of letting her off to eat at certain intervals will be avoided. Oo- casionally, however, a ben will not leave the nest often enongh to ohtain sufficient food or a all of that kind must be attended to regularly. FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN. DAILY THOUGHT. Till each man finds his own in all men's good, And all men work in noble brotherhood. Tennyson, The recent biennial meeting of the Fed- eration of Women’s Clubs, beld in Boston, was the occasion of an to women from a of that to acquaint themselves with the vital gum day, ‘which are the little, rushing snow elides telling glacier like of the progress of the boman race.” To accomplish thie woman needs to read the daily papers with discrimination as to the choice of Jaber. au exercise which she now so largely ignores that it is still, according to the Boston editor, a matter of sarprise to the average man when he sees a woman pondering over any other pars of a daily paper than the fashions avd he fiction. It is urged thas women should have an intelligent under. stauding of currents events, and a collegiate course on general informasion bas been seriously . A good many girls wear the fashionable sleeves without she slightest regard for the suitabilisy of their bande and arme to the short sleeve. Some time a girl whose bands were very coarse looking and whose arms and eibows were a brick-red bae per- sisted in wearing the shortest of sleeves in spite of ber mother’s assurance that the style was not hecoming. This drew upon her the uokind but pointed remark of a sarcastic cousin, who observed shat it was not surprising that Annie's arme were red, as no doubt they were blushing for the ancared-for state of her bands —Home Notes. Oae of the innumerable uses to which glyeerine may be put is cleansing material on which coffee has heen spilled. The dark stain, and even the grease spot from the cream, are easily removed. The ma- terial should be carefully rinsed in luke- warm water and pressed on the wrongside. At no time of the year i it so important to watch the cleanliness of the baby’s food as it is now. It is an esvential condition if the youngster is to be kept alive through the trying season. Milk is the important food, and both ite cleanliness and temperature govern its ef- fect on the child. A young mother shonld nos leave this work to an inexperienced nurse. She should overlook it if she does nos actually do it herself. It there is a drop of old milk left in the bostle when it is refilled, it will prove dis- astrons. As soon as a baby finishes with a bottle, the remains should be emptied, and it should be stood I cold water, which prevents the milk from drying on the glass, When it is washed it is put into very hos water and a brusb made for the purpose is ueed inside and onside. After this it should be rinsed in more bot water and then in boracio water. It is not a bad custom to let the bostle stand in the last water notil is is time for filling is. The nipples must be cleaned in the same way, as the rubber is far more apt to hold partioles of soured milk than glass is. After each time they are used, they should be tarned inside out and washed in warm, soaped water with the brush. Is is always best *to dip them in boracic water afterward. Every young mother should early learn the value ol using thie boracic water to antisepticize everything connected with the young baby Mothers, for instance, who are very care- ful, always wipe ous haby’s mouth alter nursing with a bis of extra soft old moslin, spotlessly clean, which bas heen dipped in horacio water. This method may also be used for the baby's eves when they are sore or irritated hy the light, and especially in the morning when the lide are apt to be closed down a listle at the corners. If you are overstout, don’t nse drugs. They may bring on another evil worse thar flesh. Use the flesh brush. Get a square cor- nered clothes hrush of manila fibre. As first the skin will be sensitive, but use the brush gently and steadily and it will not irritate. Pay attention to the muscles of the shoulders and arms, and especially the back of the neck where that unosightly mound of flesh rises Whenever you oan walk, do so. Imagine that the trolley car engenders disease. When you feel sleepy, go out in the sun- shine on an interesting mission. Do your sleeping at night and omit the afternoon nap. For Raspberry and Currant Jam.—Allow four pounds of sugar and a pint of currant juice to every five pounds of raspberries. Pat the fruit and sagar in alternate layere in the preserving kettle, place over the fire and let is simmer gray If an hoar. Plaster figures in - or alabaster finish are easily cleaned by dippiog a stiff tooth- hrush in gasoline and sorubbing into all the crevices. Garments that are to be bung out to air can be put on hangers rather than pinned to the line. This ta sagging or mark- ing with olothespine Caramel Ice Cream.—For those who wish a change from the regular run of ice oream flavorings there is this recipe : Three tablespoonfuls of sugar are added to the venal oup, and this is browned ina sanocepan, then mixed with a little boiling water, en to dissolve the sugar. This is added to the orcam mixtare and is iced. A scratch on polished lurvituare can be almost obliterated by rubbing vigorously with liuseed oil. To serving a nnmber of persons at tea or reception, silver and dishes often need to be washed. The hostess should see to it that there is a big supply of dishtowels, otherwise she will be mortified by damp spoons and plates. Keep a vegetable brush to remove the silk TiS from ears of corn. A new nail brush with a bandle is equally uselul. In opening a can that is stubborn, run a nail through the loop of the key, to use as a leaver. It an iron is not at band when marking clothes with indelible ink, hold she is Sut saian lighted lamp chimney or gas g i. Family 3ecrets. A father complains that his little six-year-old girl Is too talkative. He says: The worst of it is when we Lkave visitors =he is continually mak- ing mistakes of the worst sort, mis- takes that tend to rattle the dry bones of the family skeleton in the cup- board. Recently she allowed ber tongue to run away with her, as usual, the result of which was that she very much embarrassed both her father and mother, although the guests seem- ed delighted. I had a very serious talk with her and impressed upon her, or tried to, that she must not tell any family secret. The next time we had com- pany she was permitted to come to the table only by promising that she wouldn't utter a word. She behaved beautifully and had nothing to say until the dessert wus about to be taken away. Then her lips began to quiver, and finally she burst into tears. “Why, what's the matter, darling?” her mother asked. “]—I want some more ice cream, if that isn’t a family secret,” she walled between sobs.—London Telegraph. An Unexpected Burns Lecture. John Augustus O'Shea used to be in considerable request as a lecturer on his military experiences. Once, Dumfries, he came upon the platform wearing in his buttonhole a daisy, which he quietly removed and held up. “Ladles and gentlemen,” he began, “I hold In my hand a ‘wee modest flower’ I plucked this evening from the grave of Robert Burns.” The au- dience was interested and became in. thralled as the lecturer went on to speak of the national poet. Then, suddenly recollecting that Burns had nothing to do with his subject, he stopped abruptly. “And now,” sald Mr. O'Shea, “I will proceed to relate my exneriences in the war.” But by this time he had thoroughly engaged the sympathies of his listen- ers, who would not hear of another subject, “Never min’ the war, sir,” they vociferated; “gie us Robbie Burns!” And he did. This extempore oration afterward became one of the most popular of Mr. O'Shea's lectures. —London Chronicle. . —————— Lord Penzance's Acquaintance. When the late Lord Penzance was plain Mr. Wilde, he once took an early morning stroll round Covent Garden market. There he entered into conver- sation with an old man of genial aspect who had just made a purchase of a geranium. Mr. Wilde soon found that the stranger was an enthusiastic amateur gardener, and the pair had an interesting chat on horticultural topics as they walked toward Oxford street. Suddenly the fare in a passing hansom cab signaled to the driver to pull up. and within the vehicle Wilde saw his friend, Sergeant Ballantine. Bidding the old man adieu, Wilde entered the cab. In surprised accents Ballantine ex- claimed, “How on earth did you come to know that man?” “Picked him up just now in Covent Garden market,” said his companion, “Well, Wilde,” the sergeant remark- ed, “your new acquaintance is Cal. craft, the hangman!”"—London Acade- my. Annoying the Passengers. “There used to be in one of the southern states,” said a military man, “a railroad that was notorious for its slowness. This line was so slow that the people took to lampooning it in the press. Thus ome Memorial day a planter wrote to the Rapier, the lead- ing paper of his district: ‘““The Editor of the Rapler: “Dear Sir—ls there no way to put a stop to begging along the line of the rail- road? For Instance, yesterday an aged veteran with a wooden leg kept pace with the afternoon express all the way from Paint Rock to Nola Chucky and annoyed the passengers exceedingly, going from one open window to another with his im- portunate solicitations. “VOX POPULL" —Washington Star.
